Squishy is both a domestic cat with a tiger coat, and a whole ass Tiger. Her form depends on how Trevor is feeling. If he's stressed out or scared, she's padding around as a Tiger.
He's good at hiding his emotions, so he will seem as friendly as normal, then Squishy plods up and it's just. Yeah lmao, he's lying to you.
Exposition dump explanation belowwwww
In this universe, Demons, and Fiends (Trevor is a Fiend) are such energy heavy beings, that sharp spikes of traumatic emotions, has a small chance of just straight up creating life. These beings are called "Laguna". They can feel their persons emotional state, and essentially are service pets.
There's two types.
Demon made Laguna, which only have one form. The form can be anything from Earth or Pit (The Demons home world).
Fiend created Laguna, which have two forms. A smaller more friendly form, and a larger more aggressive form. The forms must be from the same family, but don't necessarily have to be from the same time era. Through Fiend Laguna pets, science has been able to give proper form and coats to extinct species.
The smaller form tells how well a person handled the traumatic event externally. While the larger form is how well they handled it internally.
Example. A Fiend's Laguna pet can be a chicken, but they become upset, and their pet shifts into the bigger form, and it's a whole ass T-Rex. Externally they handled the trauma well, internally they didn't really process it at all.

Both versions can be given up by their owners if they feel they've moved past their trauma. There are people who care for Laguna pets and help get them to people with similar trauma that the pets were made from.
